[QUOTE="Brine, post: 214425, member: 1053"] hmmmm.... I dunno. Throwing crankbaits (that don't roll) shouldn't cause the twist; however, it could also be how the line is being put on the reel. If I didn't say it earlier, make sure to flip your bail each time by hand to close it, and make sure there is no slack in the line when you start to reel. If you just start reeling after the cast to flip the bail, look next time you do it and you'll see about a 1/4 turn of the spool is getting slack line put on it. This will call line twist, as will reeling again against your drag. Hope it helps! [/QUOTE]
